[Endgame testing] ipykernel 6 required for debugging to work - not informed when using lower version and strange behavior #6405

@meganrogge

Description

@meganrogge

testing microsoft/vscode#127362 , debugged with @DavidKutu

Expected behaviour

I expected debugging to work with ipykernel 5.5.5 installed

Actual behaviour

It did not and had some confusing behavior:

  • Jupyter: Debug appeared in the command palette, but only on window reload
  • I could set breakpoints, but they wouldn't get hit

To resolve this, I had to uninstall ipykernel and re-install the latest version with pip install ipykernel --pre
